ISS best images on July 15
      #2523831 - 07/17/08 06:04 AM Attachment (31 downloads)

Hi--Two ISS passes on July 15 resulted in some nice views of the station.
Note especially the clear light/shadow play on the Kibo Lab,giving it
really the cylindrical apprearance.The small image shows this effect together
with the shape nicely in a comparison of July 14 and July 15 captures from
different but comparable lightning angles.

The short animation,which I call a '' living picture'' reprsents nicely
the seeing during these captures which seems to be very good.
(all images as always using handtracking on a 10in Newtonian reflector)

Best wishes,
Ralf

Hi Ralph,

What does your setup look like? How do you track?
